“DEI stands for Division, Exclusion and Indoctrination.”
– Governor Ron DeSantis
“Every day, Americans are dying, murdered, assaulted, raped by illegal immigrants that the Democrats have released…this is evil, and this is wrong, and this is happening every damn day.”
– Senator Ted Cruz
“President Trump built the strongest economy, the mightiest military, energy independence, unlimited opportunity uplifting every American…and he will do it again!”
– Governor Glen Youngkin
Assassination Failed: An assassin’s bullet just missed President Trump’s head and went through his ear as he turned his head during his speech. The assassin’s bullet came within less than an inch of killing President Trump.
The frustration is that the Democrats have normalized criminality. Putting the genie back in the bottle will be VERY difficult.
Just weeks ago, Biden sent an open invitation to the world, warning Trump is “a threat to our freedom,” “a threat to this nation,” “a threat to our democracy,” and “literally a threat to everything America stands for.” Then he told donors, “It’s time to put Trump in the bullseye.”
It’s not just Biden, the left has spent YEARS laying the groundwork for violence against Trump.
Find ONE Republican or conservative who said anything like this… it’s not out there.

Trump’s Triumph At The RNC Suggests Something Bigger Than Politics Is Unfolding In America
On a convention night infused with an air of divine providence, Trump gave a speech for the history books.
It’s difficult to describe historical moments as they’re unfolding, but let me hazard a few initial observations about former President Donald Trump’s speech at the Republican National Convention on Thursday night.
Watching a presidential candidate (and former president) describe his near-assassination less than a week after a bullet came within millimeters of ending his life is quite simply the most captivating, awe-inspiring thing that has ever happened at a political convention in this country.
“I will tell you exactly what happened, and you’ll never hear it from me a second time because it’s actually too painful to tell,” Trump said.
In a calm, almost somber tone, Trump recounted in detail his near-death experience to a breathless watching world. “I’m not supposed to be here,” he said, attributing his survival to “the grace of Almighty God.” Many in attendance, and not a few watching at home, were in tears as Trump told his tale. He described getting shot in the ear, the blood running down his face, and the Secret Service agents shielding him. Again he invoked divine providence: “There was blood pouring, and yet, in a certain way, I felt very safe because I had God on my side.”
Then he described the crowd’s reaction: They didn’t run, they didn’t stampede. They were worried about him, Trump said, afraid he might be badly wounded — or worse. Trump said he wanted to show them he was all right, that he wasn’t going anywhere. So he stood up, raised his fist, and shouted, “Fight! Fight! Fight!” When he said this, the crowd at the convention echoed him in chorus.
Providence and President Trump
I have known President Donald Trump for 30 years. Callista and I consider him a dear friend. Watching him get shot at his rally in Butler, Pa. was stunning and horrifying.
President Trump’s reaction to being shot was immediately iconic. He stood up with blood running down his face, raised his fist, and said “fight, fight, fight,” and then “USA.” It was a tremendous vision of courage and power. It struck home all around the world. Within minutes images began to circulate on the internet tying President Trump’s courage to the courage of other historic figures and moments. There is even a Japanese anime about President Trump’s heroic reaction.
When it was clear the President was going to be alright, Callista and I were deeply relieved. For me, that emotion was then immediately replaced by fury. This assassination attempt was the result of the left’s nine-year effort to demonize our friend, President Trump. I had to take some time to get my emotions under control before going on Fox with Sean Hannity to talk about the event.
During that cooling off period, my old friend Ambassador Randy Evans called to say that his Pastor, Michael Youssef, had told him it was a providential event. President Trump had turned to look up at a big sign behind him. The shooter took aim at his head while he was looking to one side. When the President turned back to look at the audience the bullet missed his head by less than an inch and hit his ear.
If President Trump had not turned at exactly the right moment, he would have almost certainly been killed.
When I told Hannity that I really believed President Trump’s survival was providential, that term went around the world.
The concepts of divine intervention and providence have a long record in American history.

Melania Trump’s call to ‘ascend above the hate’ should be rallying cry for all Americans
Following the attempt on her husband’s life, the former first lady set a tone that was both deeply personal and healing for the nation
Two days before the opening of the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, an assassination attempt on former President Donald J. Trump shocked the nation. The picture of a bloodied Trump pumping his fist in the air as Secret Service agents rush him off the stage will be indelibly burned into American minds for a very long time.
President Trump’s comments on Truth Social the evening of the shooting were calm and thoughtful, thanking the Secret Service and law enforcement, and extending condolences to the families of a rally attendee who was killed and the others who were seriously injured.
In a chilling account he wrote, “I was shot with a bullet that pierced the upper part of my right ear. I knew immediately that something was wrong in that I heard a whizzing sound, shots, and immediately felt the bullet ripping through the skin.” He had nothing else to say except for a heartfelt, “GOD BLESS AMERICA!”
I spoke to President Trump on the phone on Sunday, and he told me that bringing the country together was a big part of the message he wanted to deliver now. He mentioned throwing out “a tough speech on Democrats,” reworking it to fit his new intention.
The last time we faced such a terrifying picture was in 1981, when a gunman tried to assassinate President Reagan. Jerry Parr, the Secret Service agent who shoved Reagan into the car to get him out of danger before he even knew he was injured, once said that being president is dangerous. That would include former presidents. But does it have to be that way?
What do we do with our sense of horror? A lesson about that comes from our former first lady Melania Trump. By way of comparison with Mrs. Trump, I couldn’t help thinking about Jackie Kennedy in her blood-soaked pink suit the day JFK was assassinated some 60 years ago. Various people, including Lyndon Johnson, encouraged her to change into clean clothes, but she refused. She said, “Let them see what they’ve done!”
That anger and desire for retribution is a natural response, but I was struck by the way Mrs. Trump set a tone that was both deeply personal and healing for the nation.
The Left Spent Years Running An ‘Assassination Prep’ Campaign
It was the shot heard round the world. A sound no one wanted to hear but one that was the culmination of the moral rot that has infested our political left and corporate left-wing media. The assassination attempt on Donald Trump was an act of depraved wickedness — but not everyone sees it that way because corporate media spent months desensitizing Americans to the possibility of such an egregious attempt.
For years the left has smeared Trump and his supporters as “threats to democracy.” Pundits portrayed Trump as a man akin to Adolf Hitler. But these deliberate and malicious misrepresentations of Trump were part of the left’s plan to prep the public for an assassination attempt against Trump. As Federalist Co-Founder and CEO Sean Davis explained back in December, this type of rhetoric is “assassination prep by the corrupt regime.”
“It is an obvious information operation meant to justify and even incite the most extreme measures, up to and including unconscionable violence. They will stop at nothing to retain power.”
Last November, The Washington Post’s Opinion Editor-at-Large Robert Kagan called a “Trump dictatorship … increasingly inevitable.”
“Barring some miracle, Trump will soon be the presumptive Republican nominee for president,” Kagan wrote. “When that happens, there will be a swift and dramatic shift in the political power dynamic, in his favor.” Kagan went on to compare Trump and his supporters to Hitlerites in Nazi Germany before once again posing the ominous question: “Can Trump win the election? The answer, unless something radical and unforeseen happens, is: Of course he can.” Kagan concluded that the “odds are … pretty good” that Trump would become a dictator.
The Promise of Pro-Labor Conservatism by Josh Hawley
Suffice it to say, Teamsters President Sean O’Brien’s speech came as something of a shock at the Republican National Convention Monday night. The commentariat couldn’t believe he was there. Many of the delegates couldn’t believe how much they agreed with him. As more than one delegate said to me, “That guy makes a lot of sense.”
No kidding.
The C-suite long ago sold out the United States, shuttering factories in the homeland and gutting American jobs, while using the profits to push diversity, equity, and inclusion and the religion of the trans flag. Once upon a time, the head of General Motors could say, with an entirely straight face, “What’s good for GM is good for America.” Those days are long over.
Many Republican politicians have stupidly gone along with the suits. They have broken the backs of unions at every opportunity. They have forged trade deals that led directly to the hemorrhaging of 4 million good jobs to China. They have watched whole towns fall into decrepitude, and an entire generation of working men falter. In a word, they put money before people. Politicians that claimed to stand for morality instead stood for greed.
But as O’Brien correctly observed Monday night, that isn’t the Republican Party’s true tradition. There was a time when Republicans knew that American strength depends squarely on American workers—and their way of life: family, neighborhood, church, union hall. Ronald Reagan knew it. Abraham Lincoln, a one-time rail splitter, understood it in his bones. And Theodore Roosevelt perhaps said it best when he exclaimed, “I am for business. But I am for manhood first, and business as an adjunct to manhood.” Roosevelt’s sentiment should be conservatives’ mantra.
As O’Brien’s appearance Monday night suggested, this is a watershed moment. Thanks to Donald Trump, there is much that Republicans and labor can already agree on. China is ripping us off, and strong tariffs must be maintained and expanded. We ought to support our auto workers with an America First energy policy, rather than kneecapping that storied industry with idiotic electric-vehicle mandates. We should renegotiate trade deals, protect Social Security and Medicare, and initiate antitrust suits against the most egregious corporate abuses.
Why Donald Trump is the only viable candidate for this technological age
Nearly half of all American adults own digital assets according to some studies. One-third of U.S. voters say they’ll weigh candidates’ views on digital assets before voting. Thirty percent of registered voters in swing states say they’re more likely to support a crypto-friendly candidate. The facts are clear: Americans care about digital assets, and rightfully so.
Today, every single online transaction moves between intermediaries, whether that intermediary is a bank, Big Tech, or the government. Digital assets change that. This technology powers peer-to-peer transactions online. Fundamentally, digital assets embody the free market principles our country was built upon: freedom, privacy, and individual sovereignty. Plus, digital assets build the infrastructure for a cheaper, faster, and more efficient financial system than is currently available. As we conduct more and more activity online, providing internet users the choice to conduct transactions directly with each other will unlock an abundance of economic opportunity and prosperity. However, for this to happen the United States must lead in developing this next iteration of the internet so that it is designed with American values.
Like so many issues this election, the contrast between our two presidential candidates’ stances on digital assets couldn’t be clearer. Only one candidate in this race understands what’s at stake and is running on a pro-crypto agenda.
And that candidate is President Donald Trump.
